現代語訳
奏して称すらく、「臣等は
琉球国王を冊封し、礼を畢えて宴語の際、王が通事に命じて詞を致さしめて云うには、『本国は海外に僻処し、荒陋が風を成している。康熙二十五年に
旨を奉じて官生阮維新等三人を遣わして入学読書せしめた。今やや文教を知ることを得た。この三十年来、上請する由がなかったが、幸い
天が使臣を国に遣わされたので、前使汪楫が代請した入学読書の旧例に照らして、遠人の向化の意を陳明することを求める。もし再び官生を遣わして入学読書せしめることを得れば、
皇上の文教益々広まるであろう』等の因により具奏して部に到る」と。康熙二十三年に
琉球国王を冊封するために差し往かされた使臣翰林院検討汪楫等が、該当国王尚貞の請うところの陪臣子弟を京に赴かせて入監読書せしめる等の語を転奏して部に到ったことを査するに、
臣部はその請うところに照らして議覆し具題して
旨を奉じ、議に依って欽遵することが案にある。今琉球国王尚敬は傾心して向化し、既に再び官生を入学読書せしめることを請い、
皇上の文教益々広まる等の語を称するので、請うところの如くその官生等の京に赴いて入監読書することを准し、応行の事宜については到日に再議して具題するのが可である。康熙五十九年八月初三日に題し、本月初五日に
旨を奉じ、議に依る。

They memorialized stating: "We ministers
invested the Ryukyu King, and after completing the ceremonies during the banquet conversation, the King commanded an interpreter to present these words: 'Our country is situated remotely beyond the seas, with crude customs prevailing. In the 25th year of Kangxi, we received Imperial orders to send official students Ruan Weixin and two others to enter school for study. Now we have gained some knowledge of literary education. For these thirty years, we have had no means to petition above, but fortunately Heaven has sent envoy ministers to our country, so we seek to follow the precedent of former envoy Wang Ji who petitioned on our behalf for school entry and study, to clearly express the intention of distant peoples turning toward civilization. If we could again send official students to enter school for study, then Your Majesty's literary education would spread even more widely.' Due to these reasons, they submitted a formal memorial that arrived at the Ministry." Upon examination, in the 23rd year of Kangxi, envoy ministers sent to invest the Ryukyu King, including Hanlin Academy Reviewer Wang Ji and others, conveyed and memorialized to the Ministry the words of the said King Shang Zhen requesting that retainer children be sent to the capital to enter the Imperial Academy for study.
Our Ministry, in accordance with their request, deliberated and submitted a memorial, receiving Imperial orders to comply with the decision as recorded in the files. Now Ryukyu King Shang Jing has devoted his heart to turning toward civilization, and having already stated his renewed request to send official students to enter school for study so that Your Majesty's literary education may spread even more widely, we should grant his request and permit these official students to proceed to the capital to enter the Imperial Academy for study. The appropriate administrative matters should be deliberated again and memorialized when the time comes. Memorialized on the 3rd day of the 8th month of the 59th year of Kangxi, and on the 5th day of this month received Imperial orders to proceed according to the deliberation.
